we should keep writing positive statements about kadena to support the developers who sometimes lurk these threads, but honestly i don't know anymore. the team itself is fine, but eco-system seems extensively underwhelming, even to some irrelevant neet with absolutely no standard, outside dna and electron labs. https://kadenaecosystem.com/projects
kadena llc should diversify its marketing points on chainweb. big block scaling just isn't necessarily attractive. for example, by confirming orphan blocks rate is reduced with higher chain count to claim higher security than bitcoin at equal work complexity; how different pow algorithms can be used on different chains to increase decentralization and potentially trim out some governance bias; potentially mixing pow and pos consensus algorithms to get the benefit of both; or simply discarding old chains to prune data.
pact is troublesome right now. the lisp syntax doesn't fit well with the lack of recursion, but it might get interesting once the pythonic syntax is out. i don't see evidence that inner-module recursion or tail recursion are unsafe, outside code complexity. the language's development suffers from a wrapped view on reality due to how ideas have to be exaggerated in order to sustain the marketing identity around security. although, external module recursion should never be allowed.
the strong selling point of kadena is having a consistent and unique vision, with the combined utility of high level safe smart-contracts and trustless decentralization, all of which being trimmed from superfluous complexity and noninclusive accountable sources. sadly the project itself is not always convincingly noteworthy on each individual qualitative dimension. pact core must def learn from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaction_nets https://github.com/Kindelia/Kind2 and zk language constructs.
cbdc is the future. nobody will buy your bags when all financial structures are infinitely cloned and replicated around.

a-already know pact is insanely verbose but non-devs readability is def worth it
